Dear Campus Community,

 

With great privilege comes great responsibility. At UC Merced, we have the privilege of access to top-notch teaching, cutting-edge tools and technology, and the pursuit of research and higher learning so that we can ultimately make our world a better place. With that privilege, we have an immense responsibility to use the knowledge we have to keep our community as healthy as possible.

Dear Colleagues,

 

Yesterday, many hundreds of staff joined what I have been told is the largest Staff Assembly-led discussion in UC Merced history. I applaud the assembly for organizing this important event, along with so many campus leaders who joined to answer questions.
